Mount Bonnell is a lovely spot to take a breather. Enjoy a picnic lunch, wander around the grounds or just lie on the grass and shut your eyes for a while.
This recreation and green space is free to explore, so you can have a good time without dipping into your budget. However, Mount Bonnell isn't the only worthwhile sight in or around the riverside neighborhood of Mount Bonnell Terrace. With Zilker Park, Texas State Capitol and Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum nearby, you may want to stay a little longer.
